Rear brake question for 98' Land Rover 4.6

[sgnhis]

To clarify, it's a 98' RANGE ROVER HSE 4.6. I'm getting ready to install new rotors and pads on the rear of this vehicle. Does anyone know the socket size (i.e., 16 mm 12 point) I need to remove the rear pad/caliper bracket? And is there anything tricky about this job? And lastly, what size are the lug nuts? Many thanks in advance!

Lug nuts are a 1 and 1/16th. 6 point socket.

So no one knows the size socket needed to remove the rear caliper bracket on the vehicle?

Sorry, can't help you. whos pads and rotors are you installing? Make sure to use sound deadening material and do a 3 pint brake flush when done using a synthetic DOT like Vavlonie.

No problem Disco. I'm using Brembo Rotors and Akebono Euro Pads .. $135.88 total. I think the socket size is a 15mm 12 point but not totally sure. I just wish soneone could confirm this.
